...the song. Rating: 10/10 Epitaph (4.17)-The album is named after this song so you'd think it would be a very good song yes? Well I can tell you you'd be right in thinking so! This is another supreme effort from the band, it has a slightly epic sound at intervals betweens the fierce guitar and growling violence! The solo on this track is really cool with both guitars inter-twining to create that brillaint sound that the band have. Rating:9/10 Only ...
...maybe the greatest death metal song conjured by man? This track has one hell of an intro a bass solo followed by 100mph guitar solo wich leads into one of the best riffs I've heard in a while!

A truly magnificent and highly technical song. 10/10 2. The stillborn one After the brutal introduction the next song is very slowed down with many pinch harmonics played in a repeating riff through the intro into the verse. It starts off as quite a boring song for the ... Read review

Advantages: awesome guitar work,bass and production
Disadvantages: Vocal Ability is average

My absolute favourite album at the moment, this really is an album for the musicians among you quite complex with alot of odd timings but never sounding out of place, If i had to describe this album to someone i would explain it as the heaviest baddest version of iron maiden you will ever hear with dual riffing harmonies apparent all over this masterpiece. The production of this album is also really good for a death/progreesive album, probably the ...
...drummer was used for this album also the lyrical theme has changed from gore to more interesting subjects. I really don't have a favourite song on the album it is all killer no filler but the opening riff of seven is certainly the most unique and memorable riff i've ever heard. ... Read review
